Where have we gone to?!The C64 is such an awesome machine. Yes it is slow and old and has no web browser, but it is relatively easy to program and you can use POKE's and PEEK's to do all sorts of wired and wonderful things. And it is so much less complex.

This is why so many people loved programming calculators in the past and perhaps why they could become vintage platforms like the C64 in the future. People did not code much for the Nspire because they either wanted to push outdated platforms to their limits, which was more entertaining on the 83+/84+/89 series, or they wanted full-scale power, such as smartphones and computers.

Well about the development, I haven't made any progress yet. I had to learn how everything works and I am still not done with that part. Also had I to buy some devices to be able to play my games from SD card on the actual C64 that I own. For development I use an emulator but I really like testing my progress on an actual device too.Then school starts for me tomorrow again

You might want to develop the game on PC instead for now, using Commodore graphics and palettes, scaling up the sprites and keeping gameplay simple, such as a puzzle exploration game, then once the contest is over, re-use the idea for an actual C64 game.
